How many times a day you should feed a puppy very much depends on age and breed. On average though, a puppy should be fed 4-5 meals a day after they have weaned at 8 weeks, and then 2-3 meals a day until they are 5-6 months old. For older puppies, simple training exercises will also keep them stimulated. Puppy age How often you should feed your puppy per day Feeding interval Suggested times each day 8 - 10 weeks 5 times 3 hours 7am 10am 1pm 4pm 7pm. 10 - 12 weeks 4 times 4 hours 7am 11am 3pm 7pm. 12 weeks -5 months 3 times 5 hours 7am 12pm 5pm. 5-6 months + 2 times 8-10 hours 7-9am 5-7pm. As well as cutting down how often you feed your puppy as they reach around 90% of their full adult weight, you’ll need to prepare for changing from puppy food to adult food.

Puppies Less Than 6 Months Old Most puppies are fully weaned from mother’s milk between six and eight weeks. Once weaned, puppies should get three scheduled feedings a day. Puppies 6 Months to 1 Year Old Around six months of age, decrease the number of feedings to twice a day: once in the morning and once in the evening. 1 Year & Up Many puppies reach maturity around their first birthday. Once your puppy has reached full maturity based on his breed size, you can feed him once or twice a day. Choose the feeding schedule that works best for both you and your dog. Regardless of your puppy’s age, it’s important to stick to your feeding schedule.
